Answer to Problem 47A

Molecules come closer and collision between them increases.

Explanation of Solution

When a gas is compressed, its molecules get closer, increasing both the gas's internal energy and the likelihood of collisions. The work done on the gas as it is compressed manifests as increased internal energy, which needs to be transmitted to the environment to maintain the temperature.
